 I'd like to think that `disable_functions` would stop being used by hosts,
 but it's probably going to stick around..

 I see no harm in doing this, adding extra cover for the various functions
 hosts disable for some strange reason, etc

 But I also see no rush in doing it (as evidenced by the age of these and
 similar tickets, and limited reports of running into disable_function
 warnings)

 Personally I'd `maybelater`/`wontfix` it, encourage hosts to set
 `display_errors` to `false` for production sites unless debugging is
 enabled or something (although I believe most hosts would disagree, as
 otherwise customers would never see the errors)
